Information for Communities

Communities are the best champions of their own health. They know the most pressing health issues, and hold the optimal strategies to tackle them. We also know community-led changes benefit from strong, long-term partnerships — and that's where the Institute for Community Engagement comes in. We collaborate to improve health with health care providers, community leaders and like-minded organizations in every Kansas county and dozens of other communities across our region and world.

Successful partnerships motivate us all to work harder, innovate more and grow relationships to build healthy communities.

The power of partnerships is astounding. KU faculty, staff and students are collaborating to improve health with health care providers, community leaders and like-minded organizations in every Kansas county and dozens of other communities across our region and world.
